Effects of lysophopatidic acid on tumor necrosis factor α and interferon γ action in the bovine corpus luteum

چکیده
We examined the effects of LPA on TNFα and IFNγ - induced decrease of P4 synthesis and on the cytokine - induced apoptosis of the cultured luteal cells. In the steroidogenic luteal cells LPA reversed the inhibitory effect of TNFα and IFNγ on P4 synthesis and also inhibited the stimulatory effects of TNFα and IFNγ on the expression of Bax, TNFR1, Fas and FasL as well as caspase 3 activity. These results suggest that TNFα and IFNγ cannot induce apoptosis in the presence of LPA, which orientates the steroidogenic luteal cells towards the survival state. In conclusion our results indicate that LPA supports P4 synthesis and action in the bovine CL.

Effects of tumor necrosis factor α and Interferon γ on the viability and mRNA expression of TNF receptor type I in endothelial cells from the bovine corpus luteum.
The corpus luteum (CL) is mainly composed of luteal steroidogenic cells (LSCs) and luteal endothelial cells (LECs). Cell death of LSCs and LECs is essential for structural luteolysis. Therefore, it is important to understand the mechanisms regulating cell death in both types of luteal cells. We previously reported that a treatment combining tumor necrosis factor α (TNF) and interferon γ (IFNG) ...
متن کاملLocalization of gene and protein expressions of tumor necrosis factor-{alpha} and tumor necrosis factor receptor types I and II in the bovine corpus luteum during the estrous cycle.
One of the many roles of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is to control mammalian corpus luteum (CL) PG synthesis and apoptotic cell death. Here, the cellular localization of TNF-α and its type I (TNF-RI) and type II (TNF-RII) receptors in bovine luteal tissue were analyzed using in situ hybridization, immunohistochemistry, and quantitative real-time PCR. Transcripts for TNF-α were expressed in bo...
متن کاملProgrammed necrosis - a new mechanism of steroidogenic luteal cell death and elimination during luteolysis in cows
Programmed necrosis (necroptosis) is an alternative form of programmed cell death that is regulated by receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) 1 and 3-dependent, but is a caspase (CASP)-independent pathway. In the present study, to determine if necroptosis participates in bovine structural luteolysis, we investigated RIPK1 and RIPK3 expression throughout the estrous cycle, during prostagland...

Background and Objectives: Surgery via different mechanisms causes immunosuppression in the post-operative period. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of preoperative administration of cyclooxygenase inhibitors on blood levels of Interleukin-2 (IL-2), Interferon-γ (IFN-γ), Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α), white blood cells (WBCs) and lymphocytes. Methods: Seventy-five ma...
متن کاملMolecular Regulation of Noradrenaline in Bovine Corpus Luteum
Noradrenergic stimulation increases progesterone, oxytocin and prostaglandins in the bovine luteal tissue. Better understanding of noradrenaline (NA) role in bovine the corpus luteum (CL) can advance our current knowledge on the regulatory mechanism of CL function. The present study was conducted to explore the source of noradrenaline and further to investigate whether nerve growth factor (NGF)...
